In order to substantiate that the connections I have made are correct. It would be best to obtain a copy of the marriage certificate of WRIGHT/DYKE. Victorian certificates cost $17. That then should give you the names of both of their parents etc
The death of your great grand mother shows that her maiden nmae was MOORE:
